True or False: Test your knowledge of Shaken Baby Syndrome

Shaken baby syndrome (SBS) is a form of abusive head trauma that results from shaking a baby violently. In most instances, parents or caregivers shake their babies hard when they cannot stop them from crying or when the child does not do what is expected of him/her. Some parents even shake their babies hard to see them laugh. Studies have shown that this causes serious harm. You should not shake your baby under any circumstance.

    popular given that you most certainly possess the gift.

    issues? A couple of my blog visitors have complained about my website
    not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome.

    Do you have any recommendations to help fix this problem?

    I am not suggesting your content isn’t good., but what if you added a post title to
    maybe grab people’s attention? I mean True or False:
    Test your knowledge of Shaken Baby Syndrome – Healthfacts is
    kinda boring. You could look at Yahoo’s home page and see how they create post titles to grab
    viewers to click. You might add a video or a picture or two to grab people excited about what
    you’ve written. Just my opinion, it might
    make your website a little bit more interesting.
